Outstanding!
But notice how similar the pattern of that flower is to a Sarracenia pitcher. Viewed by a fly from the pitcher's lip. Run away - orchids are a trap! I speak from excruciating experience.

That's a beauty Schloaty!
I have a couple of phals in bloom myself...including a rescue one here at my office. I found it in the market next door...large, drooping, split leaves with a broken flower spike. They offered it to me for a $1. I took it. It set a second spike off the first and now has 5 fat, unopened buds and three open flowers. I'll try to post pic if I can.
Love a good rescue.
